Fertility Center of San Antonio

Services

We offer specialized female and male fertility evaluation and infertility treatment options in the comfort and privacy of our beautiful suite.

  • Options for patients with tubal ligations: Most patients that have undergone a tubal ligation have a surgical treatment option with tubal reversal surgery, or an office-based option such as In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). IVF allows the female patient to keep her ligated tubes and maintain control of her future fertility.
  • Tubal Reversal Surgery: This surgery is performed at the hospital under anesthesia, possibly by mini-laparotomy (a small incision above the pelvic bone). Recovery period, risks, benefits and more will be discussed at the time of evaluation with the doctor.
     
  • Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD):  PGD is a test performed in conjunction with IVF used to evaluate the health of an embryo and presence of certain serious inherited genetic disorders.  Tests include:  aneuploidy testing (abnormal number of chromosomes), translocations and other structural abnormalities, and single gene disorders (such as tay-sachs, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and many more).
     
  • Options for patients with vasectomy, failed vasectomy reversal, obstructions or other male factor conditions: Most men that have undergone vasectomy or other conditions may benefit from an office-based fertility option with TESE (detail listed below), or surgical option with PESA. These procedures allow male patients to maintain control of their fertility.
  • Fertility Acupuncture
  • Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE): Office-based procedure where oocytes are injected with the sperm extracted from testicular biopsy. TESE is indicated for men with vasectomy, blockage and other male factor conditions.
     
  • Embryo Transfer (ET): introduction of an embryo(s) into the uterus after IVF.
     
  • Blastocyst Transfer - ET utilizing an advanced stage blastocyst embryo. A blastocyst is typically seen 5 to 6 days post egg retrieval.
     
  • Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET):  ART cycle in which frozen embryos are thawed and transferred to the uterus.
     
  • Intrauterine Insemination (IUI):  procedure that places the sperm into the uterus to facilitate fertilization.
     
  • Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI):  a treatment for male factor infertility whereby a single sperm is introduced directly into the egg. ICSI may be indicated for low sperm count, low motility, low morphology, high ASA levels, prior failed IVF or when using sperm from MESA, PESA or TESE.
